 [[Image(package-name.png, right)]]Each package directory should have a single setup.hint file, and one or more versions of that package as a .tar.bz2 file.  These should normally have names like gdal-1.5.0-7.tar.bz2 where "1.5.0" is the version of GDAL that was packaged, and "-1" indicates the version of the packaging attempt.  The directory can also contain corresponding source snapshots named like gdal-1.5.0-7-src.tar.bz2.   Note that the basename should exactly match the directory in which the package is found.  So the "gdal" directory has gdal-<version>-<revision>.tar.bz2 package files.
